After Transmigrating into a Scumbag Alpha, I Sweetly Pampered the Substitute Omega - Chapter 14
Yu Shu could naturally understand Luo Ranshi’s confusion, but she had no intention of explaining.
Who would not covet the Qin family’s assets?
In the past, the Qin family had Qin Ying as a weakness, and Qin Ying had been so irrationally obsessed with Luo Ranshi. That was why quite a few people who knew the news had gathered around.
Now that Qin Ying was no longer interested in Luo Ranshi, everyone naturally lost interest in performing those jealous rivalries.
It was just that this woman seemed to have yet to discover the truth of the matter.
Yu Shu leaned back on the sofa regretfully. Looking at Luo Ranshi’s clear gaze, she felt that perhaps this woman could still be used again.
“Do you know? Qin Ying wants to promote a little star. I heard that little star looks quite similar to you.”
Luo Ranshi froze. Could it be that Qin Ying still had feelings for her—
But when she thought of Father Luo, who was being held in the detention center, she became uncertain again.
“She wants to obtain the Luo Corporation, but the most precious thing in the Luo Corporation is you.”
Yu Shu’s restless hand landed on Luo Ranshi’s waist. Under Luo Ranshi’s surprised gaze, Yu Shu pressed her forehead against hers and said softly,
“With a Luo Corporation that has you in it, who wouldn’t want to obtain it?”
Yu Shu’s murmur gave Luo Ranshi the feeling of being cherished. She liked this feeling. She was so outstanding; she had been born to be loved and pampered by countless people.
Meanwhile, Qin Ying, who had finally been discharged from the hospital, was currently pretending to be pitiful.
“Ranjia, Sister Ranjia, my wound hurts.”
Luo Ranjia felt goosebumps rise from being called “Sister.” If the doctor had not said everything was normal, she would have wanted to send Qin Ying back to the hospital for a proper brain examination.
“What does your wound hurting have to do with me?”
Luo Ranjia placed the warm water by her hand and decided to calm herself down.
“Sister Ranjia, don’t you feel sorry for me anymore?”
Qin Ying gently tugged at the corner of Luo Ranjia’s clothes with one hand, then pinched her voice and blinked her eyes, trying to move the cold beauty in front of her.
Unfortunately, the cold beauty only wanted to run away right now. Or perhaps knocking out the culprit was also a good choice.
“Hiss—”
Seeing Luo Ranjia leave without mercy, Qin Ying sucked in a breath as if her wound hurt terribly.
Luo Ranjia’s steps paused. Her intuition told her Qin Ying was lying, but she still turned around.
Sure enough, she met a pair of smiling eyes. There was not even the slightest sign of a painful wound.
“Qin Ying, what exactly are you doing?”
Perhaps because she had been struck numb by those two calls of “Sister,” Luo Ranjia asked before Qin Ying could speak.
“People online all say great beauties like obedient younger sisters who know how to act spoiled.”
Qin Ying continued keeping up her pitiful expression, like a spoiled ragdoll cat.
“That isn’t acting spoiled. That’s demanding my life. And obedient? Qin Ying, which strand of your hair right now has even half a cent’s worth of connection to the word ‘obedient’?”
Luo Ranjia laughed from anger.
This little bastard—an obedient younger sister?
Looking at Luo Ranjia’s helpless smile, Qin Ying took advantage and moved closer. Then she took her salary card from her pocket.
“Whether I’m obedient or not isn’t important. An excellent girlfriend will always appear in the form of an ATM. Sister Ranjia, I’m giving you my salary card. Now I’ll be poor. Is Sister willing to support me?”
Luo Ranjia looked at Qin Ying’s serious face. A trace of sweetness uncontrollably spread from the bottom of her heart, all the way to the tip of it.
But an excellent girlfriend?
With heat rushing to her head, Luo Ranjia directly pulled her clothes free and walked into her own room.
“Did I agree to you? And you’re already calling yourself my girlfriend!”
“If you haven’t agreed, then I’ll keep pursuing you!”
Qin Ying was not discouraged at all. Looking at Luo Ranjia’s back, she said loudly.
Only when Luo Ranjia’s figure had completely disappeared from her sight did Qin Ying put away the smile on her face and look at the pile of documents in the room.
These things were all stumbling blocks on her path to pursuing her girlfriend. She had to deal with them quickly.
However, this movie queen, Nie Qing—
Qin Ying truly could not understand why Nie Qing, the biggest villain in the original book and the current fiancée of the protagonist Alpha, wanted to switch over to her small company.
In the original book, this Omega movie queen, Nie Qing, and the protagonist Alpha, Sheng Ya, were childhood sweethearts who had grown up together.
However, there was a saying that a childhood sweetheart could not defeat a sudden newcomer. Sheng Ya fell in love with Luo Ranshi at first sight, and from then on, she wavered between the two Omegas. After experiencing a series of moves from Nie Qing, Sheng Ya successfully confirmed her feelings for Luo Ranjia.
And this Nie Qing seemed to have died in an accidental car crash in the end.
Qin Ying felt somewhat helpless. At first, she had thought this book was a melodramatic Mary Sue romance story. Only now that she was personally involved did she realize that things were not so simple.
Since she could not figure it out, she might as well ask clearly.
“Yang Yue, help me make an appointment with Nie Qing. I want to understand her situation in detail.”
Qin Ying directly called Yang Yue. After losing those little schemes, Yang Yue was quite convenient to use.
Little did Qin Ying know that Yang Yue was also very satisfied with this boss. She even suspected Qin Ying was a lucky star. Even a movie queen was willing to come to their Qin Entertainment!
She was meeting an Omega, and an Omega who had long been famous in the entertainment circle at that. How could she not avoid suspicion?
Qin Ying quickly finished reading the remaining documents, straightened her collar, pretended to be calm, and knocked on Luo Ranjia’s door.
“What is it?”
The matter of the Luo Corporation returning to Luo Ranjia’s hands was basically already certain, so she had been busy recently.
“Company business. But the president’s wife is needed to appear.”
Qin Ying leaned against the doorframe and said this with a perfectly serious expression.
Luo Ranjia looked at Qin Ying suspiciously. Why did she not believe it?
“Someone wants to switch companies. She’s an Omega actress. I feel that under such circumstances, shouldn’t the president’s wife appear?”
Qin Ying’s face was full of businesslike seriousness.
“President’s wife?”
Luo Ranjia looked Qin Ying up and down.
“Who is this president’s wife?”
Some people would seize every chance to take advantage.
Qin Ying stopped pretending to be serious and swiftly switched to pitiful mode.
“The future president’s wife. When the time comes, you’ll have the Luo Corporation, and I’ll have Qin Entertainment. Which one of us won’t be able to be a president’s wife?”
“Besides, I’ll be all alone going to discuss business. What if I get deceived?”
Qin Ying continued, as if she could find ten thousand reasons if Luo Ranjia did not agree.
“You’re not going without an assistant. How would you get deceived?”
Luo Ranjia had already softened inside, but emotions were strange things.
For example, right now, she wanted to tease Qin Ying.
“My assistant was only frightened into submission by me. That means her IQ still isn’t as high as mine. What if the two of us get deceived together—”
A tear that Qin Ying had forced out hung directly from her long lashes, truly giving her a somewhat pitiful beauty-in-tears look.
“You really are!”
Luo Ranjia still wanted to keep pretending, but she could not bear seeing Qin Ying like this. Unconsciously, she reached out and wiped away that single tear. The warm touch made her face redden slightly.
Seeing Luo Ranjia like this, Qin Ying could not help smiling faintly. Her ears also quietly turned red, as if she had not just been the one boldly pursuing someone.
Faint feelings flowed between the two of them. Looking at Luo Ranjia’s shy appearance, Qin Ying only felt that time seemed to slow down because of this beauty.
After a long while, Luo Ranjia came back to herself. She pursed her lips and returned to her cold appearance, but her eyes were already stained with warmth.
Qin Ying did not expose her. She simply followed Luo Ranjia quietly to the lounge.
Outside the villa’s lounge was a small garden.
The two sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the flowers blooming freely outside.
“I still haven’t thanked you for the Luo Corporation matter.”
Compared with Qin Ying, Luo Ranjia understood the relationships between the major families better. So even though she had regained most of her freedom, she had never thought of taking back the Luo Corporation.
“I just found them unpleasant. Besides, those things should have belonged to you in the first place.”
How to deal with the Luo Corporation should be decided by Luo Ranjia, not held by those Luo family members who only ate and drank off it while harboring bad intentions.
“My Alpha father is in prison now. As for the remaining Omega stepmother, Luo Jichen, and Luo Ranshi, they’re probably thinking of ways to deal with you right now.”
Luo Ranjia had lived in the Luo family for so many years, yet she had no attachment to it. Now, thinking of Father Luo’s situation, she even felt a bit of release.
“Don’t worry. I bring bodyguards with me whenever I go out now.”
Qin Ying looked at the butterflies dancing in the garden and could not help guessing Luo Ranjia’s attitude toward Father Luo.
If she softened her heart—
“You can also rest assured. I won’t soften my heart.”
As if she had guessed Qin Ying’s worry, Luo Ranjia looked at her and said,
“From childhood to adulthood, it was as if I had no father. At home, I was like an invisible person.”
Luo Ranjia did not want to see sympathy in Qin Ying’s eyes, so she continued looking out the window.
“Do you know? Luo Ranshi is only one month younger than me. And there have always been suspicious points regarding my Omega mother’s death.”
“He never wanted to admit that he relied on my Omega mother to stabilize the Luo Corporation. So all these years, he kept thinking of ways to erase her existence. If there weren’t still people left from my grandfather’s family, I might have taken that stepmother as my biological mother.”
“He once tried to kill me. On a trip, he abandoned me in an unfamiliar place. He left the gas stove on and locked me inside the house… There were too many things like that. It’s just that I somehow miraculously survived all of them.”
“Later, under his management, the Luo Corporation gradually declined. He had no choice but to let me, who had management talent, enter the Luo Corporation. But he had also prepared for me to have an accident. So from a very long time ago, he was no longer my father.”
“On the contrary, he is my enemy.”
Luo Ranjia’s gaze followed the butterflies outside the window, as if she were talking about something trivial.
“I not only have to thank you for helping me take back the Luo Corporation, I also have to thank you for helping me get revenge.”
Qin Ying had only thought Father Luo valued Alphas over Omegas. She had never known there was such an inside story, and she only felt heartache.
“From now on, things will get better.”
After a long while, Qin Ying said hoarsely.
This should have been the best opportunity to win favor, but at this moment, Qin Ying only wanted to quietly sit with Luo Ranjia for a while.
The sunlight gently spilled across their faces, casting two accompanying shadows on the floor. The heavy sorrow and hatred hidden deep in the heart seemed to have been turned over and brought out. In this quiet time, they gradually lost their vitality like mold.
“Now… aren’t things already getting better?”
In a daze, Qin Ying heard the person beside her speak in an almost inaudible voice.
